Ohhh a challenge from the Live Tourney Pro. Impressive!
Bravery is a great trait, provided you can bow down when you're beaten...
I may well be misunderstanding this myself, but let's see...

"Solvers dont go for max EV"

Are you sure solvers dont use the minimum exploitative strategy in that article? You know the difference between the two?

"If he doesn't have the nuts I will go to defcon 3..."
Essentially what I was saying here is that you can't feed
characteristics into a solver, you can't input into a solver the range that the opponent thinks you hold, nor do solvers account for any
potential changes to the opponents strategy.
- A players characteristics do lead to certain strategies being applied, and these strategies can be fed into a solver, but there is A LOT lost in this translation.
- Solvers haven't advanced to a point where you can input a different range for yourself containing the hands the opponent thinks you hold. This would lead to him using a different strategy, which we could then design our own strategy to exploit.
- Potential changes is huge too. The way I understand it, solvers exploit and counter exploit until neither player can make any improvement without the other player changing strategy, but in the real world there is only one play you can make, adjusting and counter adjusting happens over time and it is the speed we can make these adjustments that determines the EV we gain over time.
The
perceived range is a Level Three factor that we consider during a hand,
potential futures is a factor that is first introduced once a strategist becomes unconsciously capable of Level 3, we humans use our empathy to think at Level 3 and this empathy enables us to imprint on our opponents some of the characteristics that we recognize in ourselves which we can then use to help us gage the opponents strategy and how it might change in response to our actions. This is all Level Three stuff, and solvers are Level Two.
The tone of your post makes me think you are also a L2 player. If, at the tables, you don't think about your perceived range as much as the opponents range, you will be a L2 player. Before you respond, please spend some time thinking about your perceived range, or maybe even describe to us how it is different to your actual range?
